Jefferson seemed to favor immigration to the extent that people could be assimilated, but we're not even able to have that discussion anymore.
The best way to show that capitalism is superior to socialism, for example, is to have two examples in stark contrast side-by-side so that anyone observing from the sidelines can clearly see the difference. Hence the need to have everyone jumbled together and living on top of each other, resulting in exactly what Jefferson described as "a heterogeneous, incoherent, distracted mass". As far as current immigration policy goes, assimilation is to be avoided at all costs. You can do that by throwing untenable numbers of Californians into Georgia, Massholes into New Hampshire, or Central Americans into the U.S, it's all the same.
Jefferson goes on to write:
You could imagine how unhappy California liberals would be if millions of free-staters from New Hampshire showed up in Sacramento and started trying to influence their government, but then again, free-stater porcupines would never f*cking go there, lol. Moving to an area where you have nothing but immeasurable contempt for local policies seems to be a uniquely leftist phenomenon. The fact that such migration is encouraged by the elites should give people pause for question.
